    Texas LST Butt Bake 8-17 / 8-19

    Sarge, merge any details from the original thread that you think might be useful here!

    Lone Star Trail Section 1. Near Huntsville.

    Looks the best place to park is going to be Sandy Branch Parking Lot. According to the trail guide, it should be N30* 30.637 / W95* 45.420. Several of us are coming out Friday afternoon, but come on out anytime during the weekend.

    You would head west from Lot #2. About .2 mile from the parking lot there is a trail intersection (red route) right after a stream crossing where you would turn left, then ross another stream about 480 feet from the intersection. About .2 miles from that is another trail intersection. This is the highest point in the immediate area---370 feet. Its about 30 feet higher than the parking lot and 60 feet higher than the lowest point at the stream bed. Good landmark, .2 mile from a watersoure, and likelynsome good hanging spots omn the slope for convetive breezes.

    Whaddya think? My only concern would be for folks arriving after sundown.

    Anybody got a supply of glow sticks?
